It's time to start working on river banks but I'm stuck. The base is brown foam from scenic express but it needs to be broken up with other colors and textures. I plan on gluing on some logs, tires and other floating debris later on but to get started I need some color and texture suggestions.

If it makes any difference the middle section will have some canoes/kayaks/fishermen and an island and the lower will have fishing and swimming going on. Plans call for an upper section with a dam and spillway if I ever get the bench-work I ordered.

Pics would be nice if you have them.

Thanks

Joe

Joe,

Try going to Google. Search 'river banks'. Click on images on the top row of categories under the search bar. You will find  a lot of pictures of river banks. Some look similar to yours with brown, dirt banks. Some are more yellow.  Some have large rocks on different parts of the bank with tall grass.  Some show a washed out bank. For that, you will get streaks that run from the top of the bank to the river. Some of those streaks will be almost white.  Keep us posted on what you find and what appeals to you.

George
